Well, you tell me. It's called The Apprentice.
Flashback Paul Torrisi: Yes, we've come here to be apprentices to Sir Alan...
Flashback Bordan Tkachuk: Mm-hm?
Flashback Paul Torrisi: But by that same token, I think he wants someone with some experience.
(back in the boardroom)
Bordan Tkachuk: I think he got confused, I don't think he knows he's here to be an apprentice. I think he's here, in fact, to be your troubleshooter. To put all your wrongs and ills to right.
Sir Alan Sugar: Trouble maker, maybe.

You were doing a degree, were you?
Lee McQueen: No, unfortunately for me my exam results etc were never good enough to do a degree. When I was a trainee catering manager, they put me through to do a professional qualification in catering. I was there for two years, I was actually doing my HCIMA for that period of time.
Bordan Tkachuk: Are you sure it was two years?
Lee McQueen: As far as I am aware, it was two years, yes.
Bordan Tkachuk: Really? The university has actually dropped me a line here confirming that you were only there for four months.
Lee McQueen: Really? Oh, Okay well then, it was four months then.
Bordan Tkachuk: Was it two years or four months? Do you want to see or do you know?
Lee McQueen: No, no, if that's what you are saying.
Bordan Tkachuk: No, I am asking you. I have asked you twice, it's your CV. It says Thames University 1996 to 1998.
Lee McQueen: Then I have, um, put something incorrect on my CV.
Bordan Tkachuk: Was it just one thing?
Lee McQueen: Well, I have made a mistake already haven't I, so it's difficult for me to be completely confident.
Bordan Tkachuk: What worries me is that you have got someone here who is prepared to bullshit their way through.
Lee McQueen: I am not prepared to bullshit my way through.
Bordan Tkachuk: Well you did on that.
Lee McQueen: I am not prepared to bullshit my way through.
Bordan Tkachuk: But you did on that and that worries me a little bit about you because I am looking at this and saying what else is there about you?
Lee McQueen: My integrity is out the window. All I would say to you is that I am not proud my educational background, Bordan, and I have put something down there to make my educational background seem a little bit better than what it is and that's a blip on my integrity and I can't erase that. All I can say is that I am disappointed in myself for doing that.
